Heh... but seriously, it's amazing how many people after watching Napoleon Dynamite just assume that Ligers are completely made up, when in fact they are real animals (if not a species). Judging by the prevalence of Liger-themed robots and the like in Japanese anime, etc, they've been both aware of, and thoroughly enamoured with Ligers for quite some time (just look at Zoids! Everything's a Liger!)

I think the main appeal of Ligers is that they are enormous... which is I guess why we never see "Tigon" themed mecha and superheroes...
